Mandolin and Cold Weather

Hi all-
If you notice your action lowering in the cold temps...don't be afraid, its normal.
This weekend, I took two mandolins to a concert. I played both the night before at home and the action was fine. I stopped and left them in their case in the car for about 20 minutes, just enough to feel the cold temps..in the teens. Both of them dropped 1/32 at the 12th fret..
The wood is alive!! Fear not and play on!
